Killjoy

And he goes
Crying in succession  
Heartbroken over someone
Who let him go
 
As he sinks
I pause my tongue
I don't offer any sympathy
He has to learn
 
It's cold and dark
When your love is not enough
And the scar don't mean
To playfully tease
 
Maybe it gets better
Maybe your heart never stops
Maybe it never was true
You couldn't see
 
Memories constrict
And you fail to make a sound
While you coagulate in it
Life's moving on
 
We admire the night
And you still carry it around
Baggage of the ghost
A haunting one
 
It's cold and dark
When your love is not enough
And the scar don't mean
To playfully tease
 
Maybe it gets better
Maybe your heart didn't bleed
Maybe it never was true
You begin to see
 
Winds simmer down
And the ocean isn't so massive
Waves have finally settled
Washing you clean
 
You say it's okay
The storm wasn't so bad
And I know I told you
But I'll repeat it
 
It's cold and dark
When your love is not enough
And the scar don't mean
To playfully tease
 
Maybe it gets better
Maybe your heart didn't bleed
Maybe it never was true
But now you see
